Its possible that java objects, classes and source code can exist in the database that you would never be

able to track from *only* the db tier. This may be *more* likely if the java developers find out that a DBA is attempting to track 'all java changes'. ;-)

Therefore, its probably a good idea to keep it as simple as possible at the db tier. At least it should be no more complex than auditing a data change. But, I doubt its possible (in the database) to audit java objects, classes, and source anywhere near as well as standard relational data.

I didn't want to mention this because the next (il)logical thought might be to prevent java inside Oracle. But, good luck.
